Tisha Cherry found a unique source to provide her with both a palette and canvas for her next art adventure -- Oreo cookie art.
These intricate pieces of art are made solely from Oreo cookie cream, which acts as Cherry's paint, and the smooth side of an Oreo cookie as her canvas. Cherry got the idea for the collection after stumbling upon an accidental Bart Simpson silhouette in a pile of butterfingers. Ever since then, Cherry has been obsessed with creating art from readily available materials like food.
To achieve color, Cherry uses limited edition Oreo flavors like Key Lime Pie or Watermelon. The subjects of her artwork vary significantly from classic artists like Van Gogh to pop-cultural codes like emojis, brand logos and animal faces.
